Background Studies in the literature have demonstrated the presence of sex hormone
receptors in infantile hemangiomas (IHs), but further investigation is needed to determine
the role of these receptors in their proliferation and involution. To date, there are no studies
in the literature that aimed to quantitatively examine the expression of sex hormone
receptors throughout the different phases of hemangioma development. Objective The
objective of our study was to quantitatively evaluate the expression of estrogen (ER) and …
